Ignite UI Category Chart

Ignite UI Category Chart

The Ignite UI for JavaScript Category Chart is an HTML5 chart component built with performance in mind. The Category Chart control is for developers who are new to charting and desire an easy way to create great charts for their web applications. It includes many great features, such as tooltips, custom marker type, and full control over chart axis formatting. The Category Chart component offers the most popular chart types: line, column, point, area, and more. These charts render lightning fast, no matter how much data is in your data set, even when consuming live real-time data.

The Ignite UI for JavaScript Category Chart offers many options for customization. If you are looking for a charting component that offers even greater control over how your data is presented, see the Ignite UI Data Chart.
